They look pretty happy in your pictures. They are pretty special flowers and having grow them from seed now, I can see why the prices are high. They take a long time to flower. Wow. I have 4 year bulbs still waiting for their first flowers. I used to think the prices were high until I tried to grow them from seed. Now I just appreciate the true martagon hybridizer more than ever Smiling


You bulbs look nice and established. Hopefully adding some compost/dirt mix over your bulbs will help them grow and protect them for the summer. In fall, just remember that top pic and how many more you have to transplant and what a great treat that will be next year.
